Bishop's Appeal

THE BISHOP’S APPEAL:  PLANTING SEEDS FOR THE FUTURE is a new endeavor of the New England Synod to assure permanent funding for three vital area of ministry in New England:  Ministry with Youth and Young Adults; Congregational Revitalization and Leadership Support; and  New Ministries and Congregations. The first two funds are endowed funds, providing grants for congregational and campus ministry programming. The third fund, the Mission Development Fund, is a pass-through fund holding money until it is needed for new ministries and new congregations. To see and hear Bishop Payne on the Appeal, please click the link below. 

 

Gifts made to THE BISHOP’S APPEAL will be equally divided among the three funds. It is also possible to designate gifts to any one or more of the three funds. Gifts may be made on-line by clicking the appropriate link below. Checks may mailed to New England Synod Bishop’s Appeal, P.O.
